My bow was set up for me at Quicks when I bought it. I'm aware of what was being done and why, but as things stand I'm NOT going to change a thing if I can avoid it. It's shooting cleanly, it's the numpty holding it that needs tuning as things stand.

Unless an obvious problem develops, I'll leave as is at least until I'm shooting at a much higher level. If I do start to change things at the moment, i'd likely make it worse rather than better!

My bracing height is adjusted to the lowest point that gives a quiet shot.
My tiller is set to minimise limb tip flap.
My nocking point needs raising a little, but is within acceptable parameters.
I don't have to aim one side or the other as I move further back.
The arrows don't appear to be hitting the riser on release.

I love barebow. Much less to worry about
